It's been three Earth days since the closed beta of "Elven Country", and twelve days have passed since the Seggs Continent.

As time went on, more and more of the three hundred players were promoted to level 10.

The same is true of Demacia.

As early as a day ago, he had become a level 10 power player.

However, the amount of experience required to advance from level 10 to level 11 is also much more than players imagined, requiring a full 10,000 points.

And from level 9 to level 10, it's only 3,000 points.

After these days of familiarity, the method of gaining experience in "Elven Country" has also been explored by players.

For now, in summary, there are nothing more than two, either to do quests or to hack monsters and upgrade like other games.

Unlike other games, the special effects after killing monsters in this game are quite realistic, and the level of gore makes people wonder how the game survives. At first, many players were not used to it, but after a long time, they became numb......

After all, it is known as the most realistic virtual game! Anyway, if you can't get used to it, you can also choose to mosaic the bloody pictures in the field of vision in the game system.

After reaching level 9, players are divided into two factions regarding promotion.

Some of the more conservative players, such as the Coo-Coo Bird, chose to stay in the camp, intending to continue to rely on completing missions to advance to Black Iron.

The other group of aggressive players who can't wait to take the plunge choose to leave the safety zone within a 10-kilometer radius and try their luck outside.

Chopping down trees or killing monsters will give you some experience points, but the creatures in the safe zone are too weak, and the experience gained is pitiful, far inferior to the mission.

Therefore, some players have suggested that after the strength is about the same, try outside the safe zone, and maybe you can find a powerful monster that can provide a lot of experience.

Some players, on the other hand, choose to leave the safe zone after level 9, explore the dark zone, and try their luck to find monsters that provide experience points.

As it turned out, their choice was not wrong, and on the same day, a player named "Box Lunch" led a team to encounter a level 9 forest python outside the safe zone, and several people worked together to kill it and get a lot of experience points.

After the news reached the camp, it caused a lot of sensation, and many players were moved.

Several players who had planned to work on quests to advance to level 11 even joined the daring pioneers.

However, the vast majority of people still choose to follow the novice guidance of the system and steadily rely on tasks to get promoted.

After all, as the level increases, so does the game's death penalty. No one wants to accidentally go back to the pre-liberation period the next night and start from scratch again.

In fact, this resurrection mechanism of Celestial difficulty has made some players resentful, and I don't know how many times they have complained on the official forum...... Eve is also thinking about making improvements.

In addition, even if it is mosaic, the bloody picture of slashing monsters makes some players uncomfortable. Therefore, in the end, the players who choose to take the risk are still a minority, and most of them are men.

Demacia became interested in exploration, he died a few times before level 5, and it took a lot of hard work to get back into his liver, and at this moment, Li Mu and Gugu Bird were already sprinting to the black iron!

He didn't want to be left too far behind, so he finally chose to take the risk and pulled in three other level 10 male players who were going to try their luck.

The four of them, three power systems, and one spell casting system, decided to leave the safe zone together and go to the dark zone to investigate.

……

As you leave the safe zone, the vegetation of the Elven Forest grows more and more dense and becomes more and more difficult to navigate.

Demacia and his party walked through the forest, using their weapons to split a path, while watching their surroundings warily, looking for possible monsters.

"There's too many plants, isn't it? It's hard to walk. ”

"Primeval forest, after all."

"Brother Demacia, is your news reliable? Is there really a forest python here? ”

"Don't worry! Absolutely! I bought it from the 'box lunch' with a sunshade tree, and he saw it with his own eyes. ”

Listening to his teammates' inquiries, Demacia patted his chest and reassured.

At present, the supplies are not abundant, so the currency system of the elven kingdom has not been established, and players can only barter. However, Eve has already devised a contribution system to replace currency, which will be officially launched after player level 11.

"I see!"

After listening to Demacia's explanation, several players were relieved a lot.

The group moved on.

And a few hundred meters away from Demacia, a pair of big bright eyes were watching everything.

It was the oaks that guarded Basaka.

Basaka hides in the crevices of the ancient wood, observing several players, while he holds a shivering goblin in his hand......

This goblin was caught by him by squatting on the edge of the ruins of Emerald and has a level 10 strength, but he has beaten him half to death.

Basaka clutched the goblin like a chick while keeping an eye on the movements of several players.

Demacia and the others didn't notice the prying eyes, they were still chatting quietly as they walked forward.

"How far have we got?"

"It's almost seven kilometers out of the safe zone."

"Shhh

Suddenly, Demacia, who was walking in the front, changed his expression, and his pointed ears moved slightly.

I saw him stretch out his hand and make a shushing motion, and then whispered to his teammates:

"Quiet! I think I'm hearing something! ”

The tone suppressed a faint excitement.

The team suddenly fell silent, and several people immediately raised their spirits.

They lowered their bodies as they held their breath and looked around with wide eyes.

"Ahhhhh!!h

Suddenly, a sharp and miserable voice came from ahead, startling a group of birds.

Several people's hearts tightened, and they quickly drew their weapons.

"Ahhhhh——!h

The screams were getting closer, with a hint of madness.

Several people were nervous, and hurriedly put on a fighting posture, their hearts pounding.

"It's ...... ahead"

Demacia said solemnly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the bushes in front of him suddenly move, and a thin green-skinned creature rushed out.

The creature was dressed in tattered clothes, with a hideous expression and bloodshot eyes, and rushed towards several people in a frenzy.

"Brother...... Goblins?! ”

Several people shouted in unison.

The only caster put an identification spell, and then his eyes lit up:

"Level 10! But it seems that there are injuries on the body! ”

"It has no weapons!"

"Good...... It's fierce! Isn't it afraid of us? ”

A hint of excitement flashed in Demacia's eyes, and he waved his big knife and said excitedly:

"Whatever! It is the experience of delivery to your door! Done! ”

"Coil!"

"Don't let it run!"

Several others shouted.

After saying that, several people shouted "Wow Wow" and slashed at the goblin with their wooden knives.

However, to the surprise of several people, this goblin didn't even dodge, and just crashed into it so hard, blood overflowed, and he died directly in a sword......

At the last moment, a hint of relief flashed in its eyes.

The hidden war sacrifice slowly unleashed, and the goblin's body instantly grew old, turning into ashes in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the news of the arrival of experience also came from the system of the four people.

It's just that at this moment, the four players were a little stunned.

"It'...... Why doesn't it hide? ”

"How do I feel like it's looking for death......"

"I feel the same way, as if someone is chasing it from behind......"

"Vomit...... You guys pull me, I'm a little dizzy......"

“……”

“……”

“……”

"Wait, what is this?"

Suddenly, a player crouches down and gropes for a shiny crystal from the ashes of the goblin.

It was an irregular pale green crystal that seemed to contain a mysterious power.

"Huh? Drops? ”

"What kind of gem?"

"I'll make a difference...... Hey? Cannot be identified. What kind of quest item is it? ”

The players were a little excited and a little confused.

At this moment, the bushes in front of them moved again, and a huge figure enveloped the four of them.

Basaka stepped out of the woods and came to the front of several people.

Looking at the oak guard that suddenly came out and was more than thirty meters high, several players swallowed in unison......

"! What is it? ”

"Treants?"

"Good...... What a big ......."

Demacia thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up:

"It's the Oak Guard! We've met the Oak Guard! ”

"Oak Guard? Is it the rare NPC that Mu Da mentioned? ”

"That's right! It had to be him! I've seen screenshots of him! ”

After speaking, Demacia suddenly said:

"No wonder the goblin is running for his life, it must be the oak guard chasing after it......"

After speaking, he was stunned again......

Wait a minute......

Your own group won't steal the prey of the Oak Guards, will they?

Several of the other players thought of this as well, and they looked at each other, then raised their heads with some wariness, ready to run away at any moment.

They already knew that the NPCs in this game could not be measured by the experience of other games, and that the NPCs here had the same joys and sorrows, and although the Oak Guards were also in the natural faction, they had no dealings with them after all......

What if it's a temper tantrum......

Anyway, looking at the more than thirty-meter-tall block and hideous appearance, several people were a little intimidated.

This big guy doesn't look like a messy ......

However, the next moment, the performance of the Oak Guards stunned them.

I saw that the giant tree man with a height of thirty meters suddenly stopped, bowed slightly to a few people, stretched out his hand and drew a natural symbol on his chest, and said in a deep voice like an old gentleman:

"Thank you, Venerable Chosen One, for destroying this evil thief for me, and as a token of gratitude, I can fulfill a proper request of yours."

You look at me, I look at you, you don't seem to have recovered from the Oak Guard's conversation.

"Thief?"

"Do you mean the gem?"

"A request?"

Suddenly, Demacia's spirits perked up, and he seemed to understand something.

I saw him pat his thigh and say:

"You stupid ......! Hidden missions, must be hidden missions! We've got to hit the hidden story! ”
